Emissions from building operations increased in 2020 compared to 2019 despite a reduction in building usage as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. There are various factors that could have affected this including our enhanced pandemic-related cleaning procedures, such as electrostatic cleaning. Analysis is ongoing to determine impacts and potential mitigative actions.
